The Croatian was relinquished of his duties at West Ham on Monday of this week, before being replaced in his role by David Moyes the following day - an appointment that has proven to be far from popular in east London.

Bilic had quite obviously run out of ideas in his role as manager though, so something had to change, and Hammers fans will just be hoping that Moyes can evoke some of the spirit that he had during his time in charge of Everton, rather than that of his tenures at Sunderland, Real Sociedad and Manchester United.

Bilic remains a tremendously popular figure amongst the fans at the London Stadium, despite his sacking and West Ham's lowly league position.

Bilic's affable nature eventually proved to be one of the major contributing factors behind his failure in charge of the Hammers, with West Ham players seemingly looking at him as a friend rather than a manager.

And the toughest job that David Moyes faces in east London will be finding the correct balance.

It will be vitally important for him to instil discipline and command respect, whilst retaining some kind of a likeable nature.
